Sympathy for the Loss of a Friend

In the middle of everything that’s been going on this month and last, I was very sorry to hear of the death of an old friend. Clarence’s widow, Denise, is really the person whom I think of as my friend. But wherever Denise was, there was Clarence. I belong to a group to which both Clarence and Denise have belonged for a long time. And Clarence was always there to help when we needed him. Both of them also belonged to a military retirees’ group to which Harry and I belong, and we will miss him there, too.

Actually, Clarence and Denise moved to California many years ago. But it always seemed as if they were still here as a part of our groups.

This is the card I made for and sent to Denise. The sentiment is from the Kindness and Compassion Stamp Set, and I used Rococo Rose and Mint Macaron as the colors for the card. The background paper is from the 2019-2021 In Color 6″ x 6″ Paper Set.

There really isn’t much else to say about this card except that we miss our friend.

I have been stamping and paper crafting for over 30 years, and have been an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator for 11 years.

My favorite part of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is teaching others to enjoy crafting themselves. Not only do I conduct classes in person, I write tutorials for teaching anyone who has internet access. No matter if you're in my area on the east side of Hawaii's Big Island or anywhere else in the world, let me know if there's something you'd like to learn!
